<p class=MsoNormal>Haven't done this yet but one possibility could be running
SIMH within a virtual machine. This could be a minimum bare bones Linux without
GUI. Networking should then "just work" because all the TUN/TAP stuff
would then be handled by VMWare or whatever else one uses to virtualize. Anyone
done this? Any volunteers out there to create a VMWare appliance with SIMH?<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>This has reminded me I need to update the sourceforge with
more<br>
binaries, I added a linux i386 with a 'semi' static libpcap attached<br>
in there...<br>
<br>
What's odd is under linux you cannot link -lrt statically... I guess<br>
I'll have to hunt down the source to librt and just include the<br>
associated object files...<br>
<br>
Anyways I'll try to get access to a PowerMAC or some kind of mac with<br>
universal tools and build some more builds..<br>
<br>
As for using the networking support I've usually just attached it to<br>
the physical eth0 on linux.<br>
<br>
You could do some tun/tap trickery, but it'll involve modules & some<br>
other stuff....<br>
<br>
Which reminds me I should do another build with SLiRP support for us<br>
TCP/IP folk.<br>
